Is there a source for a wood steering wheel for my 2000, Tiara 3100?

Vetus makes mahogany and teak destroyer wheels. I believe Tiara sources from them. Go on Vetus's website and take down the model number then do a google search and select a reseller. Just purchsed a beautiful mahogany wheel (KW55) for about $300.

Thanks for the info. A couple of additional questions please.
How difficult is it to take the current wheel off and put the new one on?

The wheel sits on a taper shaft aptitude a key way. One nut behind the center cap is all that holds it on. I gently wiggled the wheel side to side and it came right off. To be safe would plan on using a wheel puller. They are pretty cheap if you can't borrow one.
